In all organisations, there is a WAY of doing things. These methods, approaches, and cultures combine in a manner that defines the very core of that organisation. Think about it: You know intuitively “the way” that your current organisation works, what it stands for, and why it exists. But just as there is a WAY of being, there is a WAY of changing. Great Change shares a 90-day blueprint that unpacks exactly how you can combine the right mentality and mechanics to build momentum and spark transformation.
